Laney, James D.

Journal of Research and Development in Education, v23 n3 p136-44 Spr 1990

Findings are related from a study designed to determine the effect of verbal-only, imagery-only, and integrated (verbal-to-imaginal) strategies on third graders' (N=111) levels of economic reasoning (use or nonuse of cost-benefit analysis) in their personal decision making. Implications of these findings for curriculum planning are discussed. (Author/IAH)
